I’m always looking for new ways to tell my wife that I love
her. It seems that she never gets tired of that. It’s almost like she’s got an
insatiable appetite for hearing those three words. Regardless of what happens
in our lives, she needs to be reaffirmed of my love for her.
Actually, that is a real need for women. It probably has
something to do with the negative side of their nature. If they don’t
constantly hear that they are loved, then they start to think that they are
unloved. Of course, we’re just as bad, only we aren’t as interested in the words
and in some sort of action that shows that we are loved.
I have to give credit to my daughter for this one. She was
heading off to college after the Christmas holidays. The night before leaving,
she was walking all around the house with a pad of sticky notes and a marker,
putting “I Love You” notes all over the place. Of course, they were signed by
her and not by me, but I thought “what a wonderful, romantic idea.” Granted,
she wasn’t trying to be romantic, just be loving; but aren’t the two more or
less the same?
So, grab yourself a pad of sticky notes; better yet, go buy
a pad of heart shaped sticky notes and put them to work. Make sure you pick a
wide variety of places, some obvious and some that she won’t find for a while.
That way, when she finds them, it’ll be a nice surprise for her.
